Comment on Ubuntu One review (the conclusion: Ubuntu One is crap) by Robert Gehl

Robert Gehl — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 17:41:03 +0000

Antonio – I’m right there with you. I’m a longtime user of Ubuntu, and Ubuntu One has been the most frustrating program to use. You’re right – if you miss the boat on adding your computer, there’s NO WAY to do it unless you start over from scratch. I don’t know how the hell we’re expected to add/manage multiple devices in this system.

And the documentation is terrible. It’s either generalities in the online manual, or a bunch of arcane bug reports that never quite seem to match up with my particular problem.

Really, this is a basic user interface flaw that should have been fixed months ago. A simple link on the “Computers on your account” page would do it. Why isn’t it there?

Hola, me siento totalmente identificado contigo, y es exactamente tal como dices, conectas una vez y otra y otra y nada, y a las 4 de la mañana derrepente, la conexion va bien, aunque bueno tanto como bien, aqui no pasa de 500k, pero con eso me conformaba si fuera siempre asi, pero la mayoria de las veces, ni puedes abrir el msn, én fin. Que en cuanto se me cumpla la permanencia otro que se va de vodafone.

Un saludo

Comment on Ubuntu One review (the conclusion: Ubuntu One is crap) by arm

Wow Elliot, I don’t know what to say. Really. It’s nice to see how you care about the product and take the time to post a friendly and informative reply. Now I feel like my post was too harsh…

Well, I’m a big Ubuntu fan, and It’s been my only OS for the last 4 or 5 years (I also used SUSE for about 2 years before switching to Ubuntu) and I currently have it installed in three computers (a desktop, a laptop and my 5 years old daughter’s netbook). I recommend it to all the people I know and I even installed it to my 60+ years old mother’s laptop (and she loves it!).

But that doesn’t change how bad I feel when Ubuntu releases half-baked products. And Ubuntu One is a good example. Why release it? Because it works for some users? Then why not a warning, a mention in the FAQ (most people I know can’t get their way to sites like Ubuntu Forums and find out what is wrong)… Even a BETA badge would be welcomed (and believe me, something so simple would have made me write a softer review because it sends the correct message). And then it is not only the problem syncing computers: as you can see the page itself still needs a lot of work.

Anyway, I look forward for new versions (see, as I said in my post, it’s annoying having to upgrade the whole OS just to get some new features). I really like what Ubuntu One has to offer and if it works I don’t mind paying for the service, if anything just for supporting Ubuntu. It’s nice to see how they try to make money with new services like this and the music store. I just wish they worked when released to the public.

When I can finally sync my computer (I hope I don’t have to wait 5 months!) I’ll write a new review. And whatever my conclusion, I promise I’ll try to be more more polite (I’ll wait some time to relax before writing anything…).

I just started this blog and have lots of thigs to say about Ubuntu, and most of them are positive. Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate it.

Hi Antonio, sorry to read about all the problems you ran into using Ubuntu One. The process for activating an OAuth token to pair your computer with Ubuntu One works well for most people, but I know there are still some cases where it fails, and we’re working to solve every reproducible case we can find. We’re also working on replacing the registration process with something more robust built directly into the desktop so that there are fewer chances for error. I hope you’ll give things another try when Ubuntu 10.10 comes out.

Pués sí, funciona. Al menos cuando se pueblica un artículo (aunque hay un par de detalles que pulir). Ahora a ver si hace lo propio con un comentario.
